We must not be seeing the same Ashanti picture if you saying she aint cute. Who cares if you can find that shirt easily. When you find it post a link. It’s better when celebrities wear clothes most people can afford than wear something that we can only dream of having.

Keyshia Cole looks a mess. She need to fire her stylist ASAP. Ciara looks nice. Damn JD is short.

JD’s daughter kind of looks like Penny from Good Times. Or maybe my eyes are deceiving me. lol
I can’t stand Katt Williams. He is not funny. I have never laughed at any of his ‘jokes’. There are no punchlines, no cleverness, no substance. That whole pimp-funny-voice is
too gimmicky for me to believe; its like hes trying to make himself a signature caricature? Cause such cannot be self made.

WTF Keyshia…..she looks a bleach-blond mess……baby girl its time to upgrade.
Cici, now baby girl who were giving glam, now you’ve fallen back. die that hair back black, and take that damn ponytail out of your head. (Dress is over tho)
Kayne outfit is over….he did that.
Why Mario got more foundation on his face that Cici and Ashanti?
Speaking of Ashanti…………………………………………..

LAUREN LONDON, I LOVE THAT CHICK! SHE’S SO GORGEOUS.
TRINA LOOKS TO LIGHT, ALTHOUGH SHE’S ALWAYS BEEN LIGHT, IT JUST LOOKS A LITTLE BLEACHED.
CIARA LOOKS ALRIGHT, HER FACE AND OUTFIT IS NICE I JUST HATE THE COLOR OF HER HAIR, SHE LOOKS SO MUCH BETTER WITH DARK BROWN/BLACK
NELLY AND ASHANTI LOOK CUTE AS ALWAYS, ASHANTI SHIRT IS HOT, WHO TAKES BET SERIOUSLY I DONT BLAME HER FOR WEARING A REGULAR TEE.
MELYSSA FORD LOOKS NICE, LOVE THE DRESS

I like Ashanti’s outfit choice.. She’s following a theme.. Hip Hop awards and she’s paying hommage to the people from the 80’s who are getting lifetime achievements and things.. DUH.

Monday, October 15, 2007 /
Ciara….. the color is off and just pulled back is not working for her, she looks good in that dress though.
Keyshia ….. still needs a stylist or abetter one than she has
I think Nelly and Ashantiare doing a throwback to the 80’s early 90’s hip hop style thing…..cute

Ashanti && Nelly make such a cute couple, they’ve been together for a minute now & STILL seem to really adore eachother. Lovin’ the hip hop theme, it’s nice to see people switch it up @ award shows, not everything has to be ‘glamourous`.

I truly think that Nelly & Ashanti make a perfect couple… Everyone looks nice…Also love the comment about Ashanti & Beyonce wearning the jeans and t-shirt thing. Leave Ciara along shes tryin’…U have to give it to her on her moves..”the girl can dance”… just look a lil bit mature at this event… Go Females and keep doing your thang…………….

Ughhhhhh! Damnit Ashanti….this was a damn award show not a night at the movies..girl try again. I understand that everyone that comes to these award shows come pretty casual now…but Ashanti is wearing a shirt that I have hanging up in my closet right now. If your going to come casual, then come casual with a twist. Don’t come to the award show looking like you are about to take your lil cousin who just came in from out of town to the amusement park..uggggh
125.
SO...
Monday, October 15, 2007 /
what i love about these award shows is ma sistas showing some back. That is how a real woman should look, curves in all the right places baby! Makes a change from all these skinny artists photographed all the time

and lmao@120….i knew i saw Ashanti’s shirt somewhere…. Delia’s. Shiit….the shirts are buy one get one half off…but those joints be expensive…t-shirts be like $26 and shit. I was mad when the store around my way ran out of the Run D.M.C. shirt. The white girls in Md. rock Ashanti’s shirt.

Keyshia Cole look like a two dollar ho.
Polow the Don looks stupid, but I know he was attempting the “classic hip hop look”.
Why is Cornel West at this? I guess he is trying to bridge the gap between academia and Hip Hop?
135.
O.....Ok
Monday, October 15, 2007 /
I like Ciara’s outfit on her. She kinda reminds me of Olivia(she wore her hair that color is a ponytail to the back with a black leather skirt/top # with jacket in one of those G-Unit videos)
I think Trina looks good. I like to see people covered up.
Didn’t know Bun B was married, his wife is pretty.
Yo-yo coulda did much better!
Something looks off about New-New…..I see the freckles but it isn’t that…something in the mouth area…….(puzzled)
Melyssa Ford looks great.
Keyshia’s outfit is hott but I don’t like her hair.

Wow…I don’t know what to say about that mess that is on Keyshia’s head! And what is going on with her elbows? Is it just me or does anyone else see that ash! Ciara looks cute…but um not feeling that hairstyle, or color. She should stick with the darker brown.

Trina looks a HAM. Her lacefront is a mess and I even though I can’t see the front of the dress it’s not a good look.
Keyshia is using too much bleach.
What’s with Lauren’s expression. I heard she was stuck-up. I hope not. She’s too pretty for that but she’s not famous enough for it either.
I don’t like Tocarra’s shoes with that dress. I like Ciara’s dress but I don’t like her hair.
